Since the beginning of construction of building on East Angela, availability <br />of parking spaces has become a bigger issue and is having adverse effects on some <br />businesses in that area. <br /> <br />Kolin Bldg. The two historical facades at rear of bldg. will be saved but will compromise <br />the original plan for renovation. Bud Cornett has hired Wayne Rasmussen to help him <br />get through the building process easier. <br /> <br />Plans for Kiosk in front of Museum are progressing. <br /> <br />Meeting adjourned 9:15 am. <br />Alexis Gass, Secretary <br />
